If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Johan Hovold commit ea0dbebffe118724cd4df7d9b071ea8ee48d48f0 upstream. Make sure to allocate the control-message buffer dynamically as some platforms cannot do DMA from stack. Note that only the first byte of the old buffer was used.
